Is there a difference between 'work time' and 'working time'?

Hi Torsten,

I would describe 'work time' as that period when you are at work as in: You can't make private phone calls during work time. 'Working time' to me describes how long a piece of work takes to complete as in: The working time for this particular project is 50 hours.
